IWasPoisoned.com is very pleased to announce the addition of Dr. Lee-Ann Jaykus to our advisory team. 

With over three decades experience, Dr. Jaykus is one of the preeminent food safety scientists working today. She is a William Neal Reynolds Distinguished Professor in the Department of Food, Bioprocessing, and Nutrition Sciences at North Carolina State University, with an associate appointment in the Department of Microbiology. Her educational credentials include a Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences and Engineering from the School of Public Health at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as well as degrees in Food Science from Purdue University. 

Dr. Jaykus’ current research focuses on food virology (that is, the study of viruses in food and food systems); development of molecular methods for foodborne pathogen detection; application of quantitative risk assessment in food safety; and understanding the ecology of pathogens in foods. This work will go towards the continuing goal in food sciences to better understand foodborne illness and its prevention. 

In addition to her credentials in education and research, Dr. Jaykus is currently serving as the scientific director of the USDA-NIFA Food Virology Collaborative. Known as NoroCORE, the Collaborative is a consortium of academic institutions with representation from researchers and regulators affiliated with state and federal governments, as well as members from relevant industrial sectors. 

We look forward to working with Dr. Jaykus and welcome her to our Advisory Board. Her guidance and expertise will advance the quality and effectiveness of our surveillance and response to foodborne illness outbreaks.

I started experiencing intestinal cramps. Then, when we got back to the hotel, the nausea started. That's when my spouse told me she had been feeling ill as well. She was the first to vomit and I followed there after. We struggled to finish packing for the morning flight. We only had fluids in the form of water and apple juice for the entire journey. She only experienced nausea, intestinal cramps and vomiting. I on the other hand had all the symptoms including chills, nausea, intestinal cramps, vomiting, fever and diarrhea. My condition gradually improved, and three days later I'm back to normal.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Fever, Vomiting, Cramps, Chills

with chicken on them, I had garlic pizza. This place “reheats” pizza that had been sitting out, for how long I’m not sure. About 5 hours later my boyfriend started violently vomiting and has been for hours now. I am fine, which leads me to believe it was his pizza. It came on very very suddenly.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Cramps
